Yelp App is a prototype of the Yelp app using the The Yelp API.

Time spent: 20 hours spent in total

User Stories

The following required functionality is completed:

• Search results page
  • Table rows should be dynamic height according to the content height.
  • Custom cells should have the proper Auto Layout constraints.
  • Search bar should be in the navigation bar (doesn't have to expand to show location like the real Yelp app does).
• Filter page. Unfortunately, not all the filters are supported in the Yelp API.
  • The filters you should actually have are: category, sort (best match, distance, highest rated), distance, deals (on/off).
  • The filters table should be organized into sections as in the mock.
  • You can use the default UISwitch for on/off states.
  • Clicking on the "Search" button should dismiss the filters page and trigger the search w/ the new filter settings.
  • Display some of the available Yelp categories (choose any 3-4 that you want).

The following optional features are implemented:

• Infinite scroll for restaurant results.
• Implement a custom switch instead of the default UISwitch.

Notes

I took longer than originally expected on the filters page, trying to make the list drop down or make the other distance switches hide. I also got stuck trying to make the filters app pop up modally. The code was simple but implementing this in Swift 3, I didn't have the right method for it so it wasn't triggering and it took me some time to debug.

I also got confused while trying to find and alter methods to create the functionality I wanted versus understanding that the item was something that I could get functionality in a cocopod, etc. I understood the individual parts but not always how they fit together. Nonetheless, it was a good introduction to Swift.
